(8) "Reconnecting with our Roots, the Land, and Traditional Knowledge" conversation with Dawa Yangi Sherpa
Description
Dawa Yangi Sherpa is a Sherpa-Nepali woman, who grew up in a culture where mountains are deities and nature is an entity to be respected.
As she grew up and moved from Nepal to India and then to the United States, she embarked on a path that called her and led her to reconnect with her roots, rediscovering the wisdom and knowledge of her ancestors.
What did she learn? Does reconnecting with nature mean reconnecting with our roots? Is traditional knowledge the key to the world we envision?
Take a journey to the Himalayas and discover Dawa's fascinating story.
(Dawa is a member of Cooperative Climate Futures (CCF) and Network of Sherpa Students & Professionals (NNSP). She currently works as the Social Safeguards Technical Specialist with the Rights & Communities Program at the Wildlife Conservation Society)
